Topic: Anno 1404 - Keyboard settings (Read 622 times)

When I started with Porting Kit and Anno 1404 on February 10th with the then common version, no German special characters (ü, ä, ö) did work. A few days later, after several updates for PK, suddenly the ü, Ü, ö, Ö and ß did work - but, strange enough, not Ä and ä. Any ideas?I admit it is a minor issue. However, it would be nice if it could be solved.

A curious behavior indeed. Did you tried to do a Test Run to check if it's looking for any system font?

Right click the port in your local tab and press "Launch Wineskin". Now press "Advanced" and then "Test Run". The port will start to run. Well you get to a place where the Ä or ä characters should be, close the game. Wineskin will then give you two logs; attach and post them here in that topic.

I’m sorry, I wasn’t precise enough in my last posts, so here is a refinement:The characters are shown in the game messages and during the loading sequence. And since I play only single player, there is no opportunity typing texts during the game. But I can’t use them for naming the saves. Therefore it is a minor issue indeed.Anyway, it might indicate some problem „under the hood“.Here are the logs.
